BEL with red pupils, but why?
So I've asked this question before, and it's one that hasn't returned any 'definitive' suggestions.
I have a young BEL. She has dark blue eyes that aren't captured very well on a phone camera, and red pupils...

Today, whilst talking to a breeder with a large collection including pieds, a stunning burgundy albino as well as others including something they produced this year which they and a few others are apparently exploring as a potential first (looks like a trick, but claimed their trick has never been near the pairing, so interesting!), I mentioned my BEL and how I look forward to seeing what she produces in a few seasons time and listed the 'possibles' she has whilst ending with 'and she has these stunning red pupils'...
At that point, the breeder replied with that the red pupils would suggest het pied!
This is the first time I've heard this. I've looked a few times to try and guess at what may be causing the red pupils. I've read it could be the lesser, or even spider (but there's no spider in the list of possibles, and certainly no head wobble).
I've got a cheap black light torch here which, let's be frank, won't be up to much in terms of quality, but still, there's no hint of any markings to be seen. A higher quality black light will be sought in the future but not this side of Christmas!
But I'm curious of what your thoughts may be? Any experience with something similar?
She meant to be a super lesser fire, possible super fire, possible vanilla, possible enchi, possible pastel (possible load of nonsense, but time will tell )
I'll probably forget by the time you've read this...
